Ceon URI Mapping v4.x

[conor]

Hi,

I ran into this same problem and turning off the htaccess file didn't change the problem but this is on my server so the mystery is still unsolved.

The software has NO known bugs so this is most likely a problem on your server with something.

Unfortunately I couldn't tell without a full description of the problem and access to the server in question.

All the best...

Hi,

Hello

thanks for cool SEO mod, but there's something I don't know how to solve and I'm seeking for help. I am using ceon_uri_mapping_4.0.3_for_zc.zip with ZC 1.3.8a, with installed news and articles plugin by Dreamscape.

I do not know how to automatically generate seo-friendly urls with CEON mod. There is a new article going out around every second day and the database contains already 150 articles, which requires entering manually 150 entries into the ceo_uri_mappings mysql table..

There is no built-in support for the news and articles module. Sorry, you will have to make do with its dynamic URIs, manually add URIs, or get/commission someone to add support for static URIs to the news and articles plugin.

All the best...

Hi,

I added a new top level category with two sub-cats.

Now, I get a 403 error, just for those new categories.

All of the previous categories work fine.

Sorry as there are no known bugs with the software I'm afraid that I don't know what is going wrong for you.

If you send me FTP and admin details at this address I may get time to take a quick look.

All the best..

Hi,

A new version of Ceon URI Mapping has now been released.

This is a minor update but as it is so easy to update now, all are recommended to update.

From the Revision History:

[UPDATED] Support added for changing the capitalisation of product URI mappings. Previously solely changing the captialisation of a product URI mapping would result in a clash being flagged, preventing the change being saved. Changing the capitalisation is now allowed, with the process making full use of the historical URI functionality.

[UPDATED] The version Id header lines have been updated in some of the core modified files as they were out of sync with the lines in the equivalent fresh versions of Zen Cart. This has no effect whatsoever on anything other than to make the modification of files less ambiguous for those that don't have their comparison software configured to ignore version ID lines.


The second item above only affects new installs, existing users have nothing to do, it can be ignored!


Version 4.0.5 can be downloaded now from the Ceon website.

It has been submitted to the downloads area and should be available there soon.


Enjoy!

All the best...

Hi,

v4.0.5 in store 1.39h


Can't seem to save the chinese,japanese or russian characters in the url's.
if these characters are entered manually in the categories' pages and then saved a combination of alphanumeric characters appear in the database and the Admin category and product pages.
if these characters are entered manually directly into the database, they appear correctly in the database when saved, however the URL addresses don't work.

Help greatly needed

Hi,

Can't seem to save the chinese,japanese or russian characters in the urlls

URIs can only have alphanumeric characters plus a few special characters in them (dashes, full stops, underscores, slashes).

Japanese characters must be transliterated into these characters.

If this is not happening for you then you must have the wrong character set settings in your store. Make sure you are using UTF8.

All the best...

Hi Ceon:
So if I understand you correctly it is best to use the english category and product titles for the russian, chinese and japanese languages.

How does the Chinese web sites have chinese characters in there URLs'?

Hi Ceon:

ie
http://www.icithy.info/zen-cart-ceon...9983;成/

This web site has chinese characters in its URL?

Does the transliteration of the chinese,japanese and russian characters have any meaning or are they just arbitrary alphanumeric characters?

Hi
I am using facebook like plugin and the like button is connected to the URI so if the URI changes like button would reset to zero

with that being said there is a problem.. once I add an item to cart and from cart I click on the item to go back to the item page - there is "?products_id=(productID:ZenID" attached to the end of the URI

is there a fix for this?

Hi Ceon,
Now that I have URI mapping installed and working there is one problem I have.

If I enter an invalid URI instead of getting a 404 error page it just redirects tot he index. I have tried manually mapping page_not_found but that doesn't seem to be working.

I definitely don't want 404s to just be redirected to the index.

cheers,

Reb
